Hi guys. Long time lurker, first time poster.
Something I have had in my mind for a while was mentioned by GM Arts & Stratoblaster in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=10977&start=50
Namely the possibility of building an amp in software which is not possible and/or practical with actual electronic components.
Any possibility of getting the pre-eminent tube amp designers together (not just the ones that re-hash old 50 year old circuits) to come up with a super-duper design? One which is not bound by practical considerations which could be holding back the design in hardware form? Get Fractal to implement it in software & voila!
I know there are some issues with this concept i.e. the "perfect amp" will be different for different people etc.
If it was done it may not necessarily conform to the standard AxeFX platform - menus, knobs, parameters may be different etc.
Has Cliff already done something like this with the FAS models?
Is there anything to be gained by this or could you get the same result from playing with parameters on existing models?
What do you Axeperts think?
